Rajon Rondo Says Current Celtics More Talented Than 2008 Champions

The 2008 Boston Celtics brought the Larry O’Brien trophy back to Boston, and are widely considered to be the most talented bunch since the 1986 version of the squad. According to Rajon Rondo, this year’s team is better. Per CSNNE: “The Celtics’ Rajon Rondo says the current roster is more talented than the Celtics team that won the championship in 2008. Rondo was a second-year point guard on that Celtics team that won the title. He says the additions that have been made this off-season to the current Celtics make them better than the team that won it all. ‘I believe this team is more talented than that team,’ Rondo said. ‘But the key to the 2008 team is that everyone bought into the system.’”
